The last installment of The Living End news was the Christmas edition. Let's call this the summer 2009 edition. With all these festivals and the Hottest 100 and whatnot, things are really beginning to heat up.
It's just as well The Living End have broken into 2009 with guns blazing, it looks as though it will be a busy year.
TLE are currently on the national Big Day Out tour as Australian headliner. With both the Auckland and Gold Coast shows under their belt, there is plenty more where that came. FasterLouder commented of their Gold Coast appearance " The Living End is a band that just keeps getting better with age" Check out the picture below. Epic.

Following their appearance on the Gold Coast, Scott and Andy caught up with their buddy champion surfer Mick Fanning for a spot of surfing....
